Major
General, (after November 4, 1963, Lieutenant General), ARVN, Military Adviser
to President Diem until November 1, 1963; thereafter Chairman of the Executive
Committee of the Revolutionary Council; President of the Provisional Government
of the Republic of Vietnam after November 4, 1963
“South Vietnamese Communists Sought Negotiated End
After the fall of Hue, that was discarded as
unnecessary. Then the second possibility was considered, to insist on replacing
Mr. Thieu with a personality of the “third force”
who had been in contact with the Provincial
Revolutionary Government, such as Gen. Duong Van
Minh, and negotiating a government with him.

Chou En
lai Kissinger July 9 1971 MemCon D139
https://history.state.gov/historicaldocuments/frus1969-76v17/d139
PM Chou: We
don’t believe in the elections in South Vietnam. It is a different situation,
There are August elections and October elections and you help Thieu.
Have you discussed this situation with Mr. Minh?
Dr. Kissinger: Yes,
on this trip.
PM Chou: They want
you to get rid of the government.
Dr. Kissinger: They
can’t ask us both to withdraw and get rid of the government of Vietnam. To do
both of these is impossible.
PM Chou: We
have not exchanged views at this point. We have always thought on this matter
that we cannot interfere in these affairs. If you withdraw and they want to
continue the civil war, none of us should interfere. The situation has been
created over a long time.

July 12
1972 Discussion between Zhou Enlai and Le Duc Tho
Zhou Enlai: Is Duong Van Minh [2] acceptable?
Le Duc Tho: This is a
complicated problem. Duong Van Minh is not totally pro-American. Yet, the
tripartite government is very provisional.
Le Duc Tho: Duong Van Minh is
exactly like this. But the important thing is how to make the US accept
the principle of the establishment of a tripartite government. And
further discussion on dividing positions and power should be held after this.

Lesson in Vietnam from
Kissinger to Nixon:… “when we made it “our war” we would not let
the South Vietnamese fight it; when it again became “their war”, we would not
help them fight it.”
(We
also had trouble with excesses here: when we
made it “our war” we would not let the South Vietnamese fight it; when it again
became “their war,” we would not help them fight it. Ironically, we
prepared the South Vietnamese for main force warfare after 1954 (anticipating another Korean-type attack), and they faced a political war; they had prepared themselves
for political warfare after 1973 only to be faced with a main force invasion 20
years after it had been expected.)

South Vietnamese Government program to counter Viet Cong control in the
countryside. The government relocated farmers into fortified hamlets to provide
defense, economic aid, and political assistance to residents. The hope was that
protection from Viet Cong raids and taxation would bind the rural populace to
the government and gain their loyalty. The program started in 1962, but was
fatally undermined by over expansion and poor execution. By 1964 it had clearly
failed.
